The Sex Offender (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780802136954)

This extravagantly imagined tale chronicles the rehabilitation of a teacher who has had a love affair with a twelve-year-old boy. While the man's crime was to mistake molestation for love, his cure will partake of the same confusion: to help and rehabilitate him, the police and the doctors subject the teacher to increasingly bizarre forms of therapy. Called an astonishment by Dennis Cooper, The Sex Offender weds compelling mystery with comedy, satire, and politics.
